Our mission is to deliver the power of collective cybersecurity to defend companies, sectors, and nations so that people, companies, and nations can live and work with peace of mind in cyberspace.

Cyber attacks are fast becoming the pandemic of 2021. Despite the fact that 90% of our global survey respondents indicate an improved security posture in the past two years, 86% have had a cybersecurity incident so severe in the past year that it required a C-level or Board meeting. In this webinar, IronNet asks “Why?” Join us as we break down the results and significance of our 2021 Cybersecurity Impact Report, based on our commissioned survey of 473 security IT decision makers from the U.S., U.K., and Singapore who work in the technology, financial, public service, and utilities sectors.

Note: This webinar was pre-recorded; since the recording date, Kaseya has issued a patch and is back up and running.

Presenters: 
Major General (Ret.) Brett Williams, IronNet Co-Founder and Cyber Strategist

If you missed IronNet at the SANS Cloud Security Summit, no worries! Catch Joel Bork & Josh Trout as they discuss hybrid and cloud environments and answer questions from the audience with SANS Institute Chair, Ken Hartman. 

Every organization is scrambling to enable Network Detection and Response capabilities into their enterprise network since the Solarwinds/Solarigate incident. Unfortunately this incident was not directed ONLY to enterprise networks - it impacted cloud and hybrid environments alike.

If that is the case, then how do you get the network traffic out of a hybrid or cloud environment?

This is a question we hear often and in this talk we are answering exactly that and how we at IronNet are using it to monitor our cloud-based build system and devops efforts.

Building in the Cloud? Working in the Cloud? Oh.We need to monitor in the Cloud?

How (not) to steal Tesla’s trade secrets, ransomware Whack-a-Mole, & Iran vs. Israel

Unraveling supply chain attacks and the ongoing Microsoft Exchange fallout

Security leaders who are new to the MITRE ATT&CK Framework will learn how to make better use of the framework to identify security weak spots —  and where to prioritize budget and project planning, from IR and threat intelligence to SOC operations. Cybersecurity analysts already know how ATT&CK can help identify adversaries by mapping TTPs and behaviors across the framework. In this application, ATT&CK has become a daily tool for hunters and analysts to better connect and anticipate multi-stage or nation-state attacks. But the MITRE ATT&CK framework can also be used to assess your level of strategic coverage and prioritize how you build out your cyber organization.

Evolving Cybersecurity Policy in the Aftermath of Major Cyber Hacks: A View from the VC Community and C-Suite 

In the aftermath of a series of major cyber incidents, from SolarStorm and Microsoft Exchange to Pulse Secure and Colonial Pipeline, there is much debate about what the government and industry can and should do to improve our nation’s approach to cybersecurity. Please join us as Jamil Jaffer, a former senior advisor on Capitol Hill, talks to Ted Schlein, the managing partner of Kleiner Perkins, one of Silicon Valley’s most storied venture capital firms, and Bill Welch, the co-CEO of IronNet Cybersecurity, a leading leading collective cyber defense company.

Evolving Cybersecurity Policy in the Aftermath of Major Cyber Hacks

There’s a sea of threat intelligence available for cybersecurity analysts —yet the struggle is real to ensure it’s being maximized and is operational enough to add tangible value. As security professionals pivot from one attack to the next, they’re also under the gun to prove their threat intel investments are paying off. In this IronNet webinar, we will be joined by guest speaker Forrester senior security and risk analyst Brian Kime, to discuss:

Moving from single-stream to a collective approach to threat intelligence
What capabilities to look for in a threat intelligence vendor
How can threat intelligence be truly integrated and operationalized?
What is the role of security analysts in improving the quality of threat intelligence?
What can organizations do to refine and optimize threat intel to prioritize investigations?
